What is a gully grab?
The ravine grab consists of a long pole with a folding bucket at the end. The scoop can be manipulated at the end of the handle. | |
The gully grapple is used to access external drains and remove blockages and obstructions such as silt, leaves and rocks. | |
Anyone can use a ravine grapple as it is a simple and easy to use hand tool. | |
The scoop can be a slightly different design and have a rounded or square shape. The round version can fit into smaller round gutters more easily, while square gutter grippers can reach corners in square gutters. | |
There are similar ravine capture tools with similar names. The most common are claw-type grabs, which also descend into ravines. The claws may have a better gripping action, but the shovel on the gully grapple may hold and remove debris more effectively. |
